(1)We want a satisfying explanation of your absence.21教育网
(2)We are satisfied with your work.

A.volunteering B.volunteered C.being volunteered D.to volunteer

6.________,there are 200 visitors to the exhibition every day.

Happiness is for ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )everyone.You don’t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on.Why?Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.【来源:21cnj*y.co*m】
In fact,happiness i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s always around you if you put your heart into it.When you are in trouble at school,your friends will help you;when you study hard at your lessons,your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health;when you get success,your friends will say congratulations to you;when you do something wrong,people around you will help you to correct it.And when you do something good to others,you will feel happy,too.All these are your happiness.If you notice a bit of them,you can see that happiness is always around you.
Happiness is not the s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ame as money.It is a feeling of your heart.When you are poor,you can also feel you are very happy,because you have something else that can’t be bought with money.When you meet with difficulties,you can say loudly you are very happy,because you have more chances to challenge yourself.So you cannot always say you are poor and poor and you have bad luck.As the saying goes,life is like a revolving(旋转的) door.When it does,it also opens.If you take every chance you get,you can be a happy and lucky person.21教育名师原创作品

第二部分 英语知识运用(共两节,满分35分)
第一节 单项填空(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
21.—Do you want a hand with those bags
—No,it’s OK.I can________.
A.do B.carry C.manage D.take
答案 C
解析 句意:——要我帮忙搬 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )那些行李吗?——不用,没问题。我应付得来。manage可作不及物动词,表示“成功/设法做成某事”,其他选项无此意思。故选C项。
22.They________him a very good job________his help.
A.provided;for B.offered;for C.supplied;for D.supplied;with
答案 B
解析 句意:因为他的帮助他们为他 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )提供了一份很好的工作。由句子结构可知,该题第一空要求填入一个可跟双宾语的动词,而四个选项中只有offer可以跟双宾语;第二个空填介词for表示原因。故选B项。
23.By the time he re ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )alizes he________into a trap,it’ll be too late for him to do anything about it.
A.walks B.walked C.has walked D.had walked
答案 C
解析 由句中realizes及it’ll be可知应用现在的时态,故排除B、D两项,由句意可知空白处强调已经完成的动作,故用现在完成时。
24.Did this________any great effect________the future of both mother and son
A.have;upon B.have;in C.make;upon D.make;in
答案 A
解析 句意:这件事对于母亲和 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )儿子的未来都产生了很大的影响吗?have an effect on/upon...“对……有影响”;在疑问句或否定句中an可用any代替。
25.—What did you want
—Oh,nothing________.
A.after all B.by chance C.on purpose D.in particular
答案 D
解析 句意:——你想要什么?—— ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )噢,没什么特别的。in particular意为“尤其,特别”;nothing in particular没什么特别的,符合句意。after all毕竟,终究;by chance偶然;on purpose故意地。
26.John was accepted by four universities that he____.
A.applied for B.h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ad applied to C.was applied for D.was applied to
答案 B
解析 句意:约翰被他所申请的四所 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )大学录取。apply表示“申请,请求”时,是不及物动词;表示“向……申请”时用apply to;表示“为……申请”时用apply for。was为过去时,apply动作发生在was之前,因此用过去完成时。
27.He is not________a condition to make a long trip.
A.in B.on C.at D.for
答案 A
解析 句意:他的健康状况不佳,不适于长途旅行。in a condition身体健康,符合题意。on...condition按……条件。
28.It sounded like a good idea,but________it didn’t work.
A.in theory B.in practice C.in public D.in private
答案 B
解析 句意:这个主意听起来不 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )错,但实际上行不通。in practice实际上,实践上,符合题意。in theory理论上;in public公开地;in private私下里。
29.—Do you think the Stars will beat the Bulls
—I don’t know.But the fans________them to win whole heartedly.
A.hope B.require C.prefer D.demand
答案 B
解析 句意:——你觉得明星队会打 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )败公牛队吗?——我不知道。但球迷们却热切地要求他们赢。由whole heartedly可以看出fans的心情非常热切;require sb.to do sth.要求某人做某事。demand虽也有“要求”之义,但用于demand of sb.to do sth.结构。
30.—During the class did you notice our teacher’s hairstyle
—No,I only________what he said.
A.took on B.took up C.took out D.took notice of
答案 D
解析 句意:——上课的时候你注意到我们 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )老师的发型了吗?——没有,我只注意了他所讲的内容。take notice of注意到,符合句意。take on承担;呈现;take up开始从事;占据;take out取出,拿出,带出去。
31.The law was passed________public pressure.
A.answer to B.as reply for C.in response to D.in reply
答案 C
解析 句意:在公众压力下该法规获得通过。in response to意为“作为……的回应”。

A.take as granted B.take this for granted
C.took that for granted D.took it for granted
答案 D
解析 句意:对不起!我想当然地认为你会愿意来。take it for granted that...认为……是理所当然的。

A.signs B.marks C.signals D.information

解析 句意:我们住的地方离城里太远,收不 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )到清晰的电视信号。sign迹象,标志;mark记号;分数;signal信号,记号;television signals电视信号,符合题意;information信息。
34.From the________look of the boys,I found they were________.
A.satisfying;satisfied B.satisfying;satisfying
C.satisfied;satisfied D.satisfied;satisfying
答案 C
解析 句意:从孩子们满意的表情 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )上,我看得出来他们是满意的。由句意看,第一空表示孩子们“满意的表情”,而非“令人满意的表情”,因此第一空应用过去分词形式;第二空表示“孩子们是满意的”,故也应用过去分词。
35.—Did you watch the basketball match yesterday
—Yes,I did.You know,my brother ______ in the match.
A.is playing B.was playing C.has played D.had played
答案 B
解析 句意:——你看昨天那场篮 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )球赛了吗?——是的,看了。你知道的,我弟弟也参加了比赛。比赛中“我弟弟在打篮球”是过去某时正在进行的动作,故用过去进行时。

解析 由于作者驾驶着汽车,所以应该是drive off“开车离开”。
39.A.see B.watch C.observe D.notice

43.A.around B.at C.into D.on
答案 C

45.A.easily ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) B.gently C.comfortable D.difficultly

第三部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。
A
Sports shoes that ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )work out whether their owner has done enough exercise to warrant time in front of the television have been devised in the UK.
The shoes—named Square ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Eyes—contain an electronic pressure sensor and a tiny computer chip to record how many steps the wearer has taken in a day.A wireless transmitter passes the information to a receiver connected to a television,and this decides how much evening viewing time the wearer deserves,based on the day’s efforts.
The design was ins ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )pired by a desire to fight against the rapidly ballooning waistlines among British teenagers,says Gillian Swan,who developed Square Eyes as a final year design project at Brunel University in London,UK.“We looked at current issues and childhood overweight really stood out,” she says.“And I wanted to tackle that with my design.”
Once a child has use ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d up their daily allowance gained through exercise,the television automatically switches off.And further time in front of the TV can only be earned through more steps.
Swan calculated how e ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )xercise should translate to television time using the recommended daily amounts of both.Health experts suggest that a child take 12,000 steps each day and watch no more than two hours of television.So,every 100 steps recorded by the Square Eyes shoes equals precisely one minute of TV time.
Existing ped ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ometers(计步器) normally clip onto a belt or slip into a pocket and keep count of steps by measuring sudden movement.Swan says these can be easily tricked into recording steps through shaking.But her shoe has been built to be harder for lazy teenagers to cheat.“It is possible,but it would be a lot of effort,” she says.“That was one of my main design considerations.”
56.According ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) to Swan,the purpose of her design project is to ________.
A.keep a record of the steps of the wearer
B.deal with overweight among teenagers
C.enable children to resist the temptation of TV
D.prevent children from being tricked by TV programs
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。由文章第三段的第一句可得出答案。
57.What is stressed by health experts in their suggestion
A.The exact number of steps to be taken.
B.The precise number of hours spent on TV.
C.The proper amount of daily exercise and TV time.
D.The way of changing steps into TV watching time.
答案 C
解析 细节理解题。由文章倒数第二段第二句可 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )知专家的建议包括两项:①每天走12,000步;②每天只看两小时电视。A、B项不全面,而D项与内容不符合。
58.Compared with other similar products,the new design ________.
A.makes it difficult for lazy teenagers to cheat
B.counts the wearer’s steps through shaking
C.records the sudden movement of the wearer
D.sends teenagers’ health data to the receiver
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。由文章最后一段第三句可得出答案。
59.Which of the following would be the best title for the text 21教育网
A.Smart Shoes Decide on Television Time
B.Smart Shoes Guarantee More Exercise
C.Smart Shoes Measure Time of Exercise
D.Smart Shoes Stop Childhood Overweight
答案 A
解析 主旨大意题。文章重在讲述 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )这种鞋的妙用,把运动与看电视的时间联系起来,以达到让孩子减肥的目的。A项准确、生动地概括了文章内容。D项为最大干扰项,此种鞋不是阻止孩子肥胖(太绝对),而是通过这种有趣的方式让孩子乐意去减肥。
B
I am a writer.I spe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nd a great deal of my time thinking about the power of language—the way it can evoke(唤起) an emotion,a visual image,a complex idea,or a simple truth.Language_is_the_tool_of_my_trade.And I use them all—all the Englishes I grew up with.
Born into a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Chinese family that had recently arrived in California,I’ve been giving more thought to the kind of English my mother speaks.Like others,I have described it to people as “broken” English.But I feel embarrassed to say that.It has always bothered me that I can think of no way to describe it other than “broken”,as if it were damaged and needed to be fixed,as if it lacked a certain wholeness.I’ve heard other terms used,“limited English”, for example.But they seem just as bad,as if everything is limited,including people’s perceptions(认识) of the limited English speaker.2-1-c-n-j-y
I know this f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )or a fact,because when I was growing up,my mother’s “limited” English limited my perception of her.I was ashamed of her English.I believed that her English reflected the quality of what she had to say.That is,because she expressed them imperfectly her thoughts were imperfect.And I had plenty of evidence to support me:the fact that people in department stores,at banks,and at restaurants did not take her seriously,did not give her good service,pretended not to understand her,or even acted as if they did not hear her.
I started writi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng fiction in 1985.And for reasons I won’t get into today,I began to write stories using all the Englishes I grew up with:the English she used with me,which for lack of a better term might be described as “broken”;and what I imagine to be her translation of her Chinese,her internal(内在的) language,and for that I sought to preserve the essence,but neither an English nor a Chinese structure.I wanted to catch what language ability tests can never show:her intention,her feelings,the rhythms of her speech and the nature of her thoughts.
60.By saying “La ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nguage is the tool of my trade”,the author means that ________.
A.she uses English in foreign trade
B.she is fascinated by languages
C.she works as a translator
D.she is a writer by profession
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。“trade”本身就有“职业,行业”之意,加之文章第一段和最后一段都谈到了作者是一名作家,故答案为D。
61.Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3
A.Americans do not understand broken English.
B.The author’s mother was not respected sometimes.
C.The author’s mother had positive influence on her.
D.Broken English always reflects imperfect thoughts.
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。由第三段最后一句可知选B。
62.The author gradually realizes her mother’s English is ________.
A.well structured
B.in the old style
C.easy to translate
D.rich in meaning
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。本文最后一句话意思是: ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )我想领会语言能力测试中所不能反映的东西——她的意图、情感、说话的韵律和她思想的本质。由此可推知D项切题。
63.What is the passage mainly about
A.The change of the author’s attitude to her mother’s English.21教育名师原创作品
B.The limitation of the author’s perception of her mother.
C.The author’s misunderstanding of “limited” English.
D.The author’s experiences of using broken English.
答案 A
解析 主旨大意题。文章从作者对母亲语言的批判写到后来他认为母亲的语言很丰富,全文主要围绕作者对母亲所使用语言的不同态度展开。
C
When Andrea Peters ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )on landed her first teaching job,she faced the daunting task of creating a music program with almost no money for equipment or supplies in a climate where standards based learning was the focus and music just provided a break for students and teachers.
For her drive ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )and creativity in overcoming those challenges,she’s been named national teacher of the year.
Principal Waynes ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Kettler said he’s worked with many outstanding teachers in his 22 years as an educator,but Peterson is “just that one step above anybody I’ve ever worked with before”.
Kettler and other ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s at Monte Cristo Elementary School talk about the ways she has introduced the learning from other classrooms into her music program and her creativity in working around things such as the lack of money for new music.
When students were r ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eading S.E.Hinton’s novel The Outsiders in their regular classroom,Peterson helped them write a 30 minute play with scenes from the book.Then they chose three Broadway tunes that focused on race,equality and social justice,the themes of the book.Peterson composed two other songs herself after classroom discussions about the play and the book.
The honor means a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) lot to residents of Granite Falls.It’s inspiring to know that people from small towns can even win national honors.
As national teacher o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f the year,Peterson will spend the next year outside the classroom,as a national and international spokeswoman for education.
Not surprisingly ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ),she is a big believer in the value of arts education.She said it’s essential for schools to offer classes such as art or music and physical education because for some kids one of those subjects is the only thing that motivates them to come back to school day after day.
64.The underli ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ned word “daunting” in Paragraph 1 most probably means ________.
A.discouraging B.interesting C.creative D.unbearable
答案 A
解析 词义猜测题。由此句的后 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )半句“...with almost no money for equipment or supplies...”可知此项任务不可能是“interesting”或“creative”,而她的教学工作也与“unbearable(不可忍受的)”无关。故A项正确。
65.When Peterson began her teaching career,________.
A.music was a focus of learning in most schools
B.the environment was favorable to music teaching
C.the school lacked teaching facilities for music
D.financial support for music programs was unavailable
答案 C
解析 细节理解题。由文章第一段可得出答案。
66.What is the most important reason that Peterson won the award
A.She concerned herself with current social problems.
B.She motivated students to learn music with her creativity.
C.She has taught music at the elementary school for 22 years.
D.She made great efforts to arouse students’ interest in literature.
答案 B
解析 推理判断题。由文章第二段以及倒数第四段的具体介绍可得出答案。
67.Which of the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )following is an example of Peterson’s way of teaching music
A.She wrote plays on themes of race,equality and social justice.
B.She made use of the contents of other classes in her teaching.
C.She organized classroom discussions of Broadway tunes.
D.She helped students compose songs by themselves.
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。文章的倒数第四段具体讲述了她如何利用其他学科学到的课堂知识为她的音乐课服务,从而提高学生的兴趣。

How should one invest ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )a sum of money in these days of inflation (通货膨胀)?Left in a bank it will hardly keep its value,however high the interest rate is.Only a brave man,or a very rich one,dares to buy and sell on the Stock Market.Today it seems that one of the best ways to protect your savings and even increase your wealth is to buy beautiful objects from the past.Here I am going to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks,which I personally consider are among the most interesting of antiques.
I sometimes won ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )der what a being from another planet might report back about our way of life.“The planet Earth is ruled by a mysterious creature that sits or stands in a room and makes a strange ticking sound.It has a face with twelve black marks and two hands.Men can do nothing without its permission,and it fastens its young people’s wrists so that everywhere men go they are still under its control.This creature is the real master of Earth and men are its slaves.”
Whether or n ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ot we are slaves of time today depends on our culture and personality,but it is believed that many years ago kings kept special slaves to tell the time.Certain men were very clever at measuring the time of day according to the beating of their own hearts.They were made to stand in a fixed place and every hour or so would shout the time.So it seems that the first clocks were human beings.【出处:21教育名师】
However,men ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )quickly found more convenient and reliable ways of telling the time.They learned to use the shadows cast by the sun.They marked the hours on candles,used sand in hour glasses,and invented water clocks.Indeed,any serious student of antique should spend as much time as possible visiting palaces,stately_homes and museums to see some of the finest examples of clocks from the past.
Antique clocks could b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e very expensive,but one of the joys of collecting clocks is that it is still possible to find quite cheap ones for your own home.After all,if you are going to be ruled by time,why not invest in an antique clock and perhaps make a future profit
68.According to the passage,collecting antique clocks ________.
A.can hardly keep the value of your savings
B.will cost much of your savings
C.may increase your wealth
D.needs your bravery
答案 C
解析 细节理解题。根据第一段 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )中的“Today it seems that one of the best ways to protect your savings and even increase your wealth is to buy beautiful objects from the past.Here I am going to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks,which I personally consider are among the most interesting of antiques.”可判断出收藏古代的钟表可以致富。
69.Which of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the following is NOT mentioned as a way to measure the time
A.Counting the beating of one’s own heart.
B.Making use of candles,sand and water.
C.Observing shadows cast by the sun.
D.Keeping slaves busy day and night.
答案 D
解析 正误判断题。第三段中的 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )“Certain men were very clever at measuring the time of day according to the beating of their own hearts.”和第四段中的“They learned to use the shadows cast by the sun.They marked the hours on candles,used sand in hour glasses,and invented water clocks.”可以判断出人们曾经通过数自己的心跳、使用蜡烛、沙子和水以及观察太阳的阴影来计算时间,但没有讲使奴隶整日整夜地忙碌,所以选项D是错误的。
70.The underlined ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )phrase “stately homes” in Paragraph 4 means ________.
A.state owned houses
B.houses in very good condition
C.grand houses open to the public
D.houses where statesmen meet regularly
答案 C
解析 词义猜测题。根据这句话中的palaces和museums可判断出stately homes指的是向公众开放的巨大的房子。

“The first and best ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of victories is for a man to conquer himself;to be conquered by himself is,of all things,the most shameful,” says Plato.__71__Let a man give in to his impulses(冲动) and feelings,and from that moment he gives up his moral freedom.
__72__When Socrates ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )found in himself any temper or anger,he would check it by speaking low in order to control himself.If you are conscious of being angry,keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger.__73__Many a person has dropped dead in great anger.“Whom the gods would destroy they first make them mad.”“Keep cool,” says George Herbert,“for anger makes error a fault.”
__74__“Anger ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ),” says Pythagoras,“brings with folly(愚蠢) and ends with regret.” You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers,not by the power of those which conquer him.
__75__If a man la ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )cks self control he seems to lack everything.Without it he can have no patience,no power to govern himself;he can have no self confidence,for he will always be controlled by his strongest feeling.If he lacks self control,the very backbone and nerve of character are lacking also.
A.Self control is at the root of all the advantages.
B.A single angry word has lost many a friend.
C.If a person is too stubborn,he will feel most shameful.21·cn·jy·com
D.One’s moral freedom is based on the control of himself.
E.If you cannot control yourself,you will become crazy.
F.Great anger will bring some diseases.
G.To be angry ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself.

Ⅴ.完形填空
Robert Moody,5 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )2,is an experienced police officer.Much of his work involves dealing with__1__and gang(团伙) problems in the schools of his community.Knowing that many kids often __2__trouble,he decided to do something about it.So in 1991 he began to invite small groups of kids to go fishing with him on his day __3__.
Those fun tr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ips had a(n) __4__impact.A chance encounter in 2000 proved that.One day,__5__working security at a school basketball game,Moody noticed two young guys__6__.He sensed trouble between them.__7__,one of them headed towards Moody and gave him a hug.“I __8__you.You took me __9__when I was in fifth grade.That was one of the __10__days of my life.”
Deeply touched by the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )boy’s words,Moody decided to create a foundation that__11__teenagers to the basics of fishing in camping programs.“As a policeman,I saw __12__there was violence,drugs were always behind it.They have a damaging__13__on the kids,”says Moody.
By turning kids ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )on to fishing,he__14__to present an alternative way of life.“When you are sitting there waiting for a __15__,”he says,“you can’t help but talk to each other,and such __16__ can be pretty deep.”
“Talking about drug ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s helped prepare me for the peer(同龄人)pressures in high school,”says Michelle,17,who __17__ the first program.“And I was able to help my little brother__18__drugs.”
Moody faces__19_ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )_in three years,when he hopes to run the foundation full time.“I’m living a happy life and I have a responsibility to my__20__to give back,”Moody says.“If I teach a kid to fish today,he can teach his brother to fish tomorrow.”
1. A.drinking B.drug C.security D.smoking
答案 B
解析 警官Robert Moody ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )的工作主要是处理吸毒和团伙犯罪等问题,后文如第三段的第二句等多次提及这一问题,而非是酗酒、安全、吸烟等,所以A、C、D三项不正确。
2.A.ran into B.got over C.left behind D.looked into
答案 A
解析 run into trouble ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )陷入困境;get over翻越,渡过难关;leave behind落后;look into调查,研究。这里是说因为意识到有许多的青少年有这样的困难(身处困境之中),所以他才决定做点什么来解决这些问题。故A项正确。
3.A.ahead B.away C.off D.out
答案 C
解析 off作后置定语,修饰day,on his day off在闲暇之余,在不上班的时候,属于固定搭配。2·1·c·n·j·y
4.A.immediate B.damaging C.limited D.lasting
答案 D
解析 这些有趣的活动具有长远性影响。 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )从后文举的例子可以看出这一活动的影响之长远。故D项正确。immediate立刻,马上;damaging破坏性的,恶劣的;limited有限的。
5.A.once B.while C.since D.until
答案 B
解析 while引导时间状语从 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )句,意为“当……的时候”。once表时间(含条件意味),“一旦……”;since表时间或条件,“自从……,既然……”;until表时间,“直到……(为止)”。文章叙述的是当他在负责一所学校篮球比赛的治安工作时发生的事情,根据句意知选while。
6.A.quarreling B.complaining C.talking D.cheering
答案 A
解析 这里举例说明前面钓鱼活动对青少年不良问题的影响,所以这里是指两个人吵架时被Moody发现了。B、C、D三项均与文章的主旨不符。
7.A.Slowly B.Suddenly C.Finally D.Secretly
答案 B
解析 这里用Suddenly来突出事情的偶然性,男孩的动作是出乎他意料的。这也恰好说明了钓鱼活动的影响之广、之深。
8.A.understand B.hear C.see D.remember
答案 D
解析 remember记着, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )记得。男孩虽然有吵架的不良行为,但在看见他时能够立刻停止吵架并主动走过来与之交谈,这说明男孩仍然“记得”有关钓鱼的事情,并且受其影响而主动克制自己,纠正自己的行为。
9.A.fishing B.sailing C.boating D.swimming
答案 A
解析 这里是举例说明钓鱼活动的影响,与航海、划船及游泳等活动都没有关系。
10.A.quietest B.longest C.best D.busiest
答案 C
解析 选择best体现了男孩对于钓鱼活动的高度评价,充分说明了其影响之大。其余三项都不能与文章的主旨相吻合。
11.A.connects B.introduces C.reduces D.commits
答案 B
解析 句意:Moody决意建立基金会以引导 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )孩子们掌握在野外钓鱼的基本知识。introduce引导,符合句意。connect联系;reduce降低,减少;commit委托,承诺。其目的在于让更多的青少年能够参与其中,而非把他们培养成钓鱼高手,所以A、C、D三项含义不符。
12.A.where B.unless C.as D.whether
答案 A
解析 句意:只要有了暴力,吸毒也就接踵而至 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )。where在此引导地点状语从句,与Where there is a will,there is a way.是同样的句式结构。
13.A.impression B.burden C.decision D.impact
答案 D
解析 本文前面说暴力和吸毒相伴而来,这儿 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )说暴力和吸毒对青少年的不良影响。而impression印象;burden负担;decision决定等都不符合Moody的观点。
14.A.asked B.intended C.pretended D.agreed
答案 B
解析 intend to d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o sth.打算、计划做某事。作者在此用intend一词来说明Moody的目的是通过将孩子们的注意力转向钓鱼来向他们展示一种不同以往的生活方式。【出处:21教育名师】
15.A.solution B.change C.bite D.surprise
答案 C
解析 句意:当你们坐在那里等待(鱼儿上钩)时,你们不妨相互之间进行一些谈话,而这些谈话往往是有深度的(指质量高的、有意义的交流)。
16.A.concerns B.interests C.conversations D.emotions
答案 C
解析 从前文的talk to each other可以得到提示。
17.A.participated in B.worked out C.approved of D.made up
答案 A
解析 Michelle曾 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )经参加过Moody的钓鱼活动并且受益匪浅。participate in 参加;work out制订出,计算出;approve of同意;赞成;make up编造,补偿。
18.A.misuse B.avoid C.tolerate D.test
答案 B
解析 Michelle曾 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )经参加过Moody的钓鱼活动,并成功地帮助弟弟远离毒品。avoid避免,使不再;misuse滥用;tolerate容忍,宽恕;test检测,检查。A、C、D三项均与题意不符。
19.A.unemployment B.challenge C.competition D.retirement
答案 D
解析 由下文中的to run the fo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )undation full time可知,他很快就要退休了。unemployment失业,这一含义文中并未提及。challenge挑战;competition竞争,与后文意思都不吻合。21·世纪*教育网
20.A.team B.school C.family D.community
答案 D
解析 community社区,居住区域。M ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )oody觉得自己生活得很愉快,是因为他认为自己尽到了回报周围人们的责任,使孩子们更加健康地成长。这从最后一句话If I teach a kid to fish today,he can teach his brother to fish tomorrow.可以看出Moody的想法。www-2-1-cnjy-com

Ⅳ.阅读理解
“I’ve changed m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y mind.I wanted to have a telescope,but now I want my daddy back.” Lucien Lawrence’s letter to Father Christmas written after his schoolteacher father had been knifed to death outside his school gate must have touched every heart.Lucien went on to say that without his father he couldn’t see the stars in the sky.When those whom we love depart from us,we cannot see the stars for a while.21·cn·jy·com
But Lucien,the stars ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) are still there,and one day,when you are older and your tears have gone,you will see them again.And,in a strange way,I expect that you will find your father is there too,in your mind and in your heart.I find that my parents,long dead now,still figure in many of my dreams and that I think of them perhaps more than I ever did when they were alive.I still live to please them and I’m still surprised by their reactions.I remember that when I became a professor,I was so proud,or rather so pleased with myself,that I couldn’t wait to cable my parents.The reply was a long time in coming,but when it did,all Mother said was “I hope this means that now you will have more time for the children!” I haven’t forgotten.The values of my parents still live on.2·1·c·n·j·y
It makes me paus ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e and think about how I will live on in the hearts and minds of my children and of those for whom I care.Would I have been as ready as Philip Lawrence have been to face the aggressors(挑衅者),and to lay down my life for those in my care How many people would want me back for Christmas It’s a serious thought,one to give me pause.
I pray silent ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ly,sometimes in the dead of night,that ancient cry of a poet“Deliver my soul from the sword (剑),and my darling from the power of the dog.” Yet I know that death comes to us all,and sometimes comes suddenly.We must therefore plan not to live forever,but live as if we will die tomorrow.We live on,I’m sure,in the lives of those we loved,and therefore we ought to have a care for what they will remember and what they will treasure.If more parents knew this in their hearts to be true,there might be fewer knives on our streets today.
Main idea 人过留名,雁过留 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )声;有时我们的生命不是自己的,而是活在亲人们的生命里。所以我们要珍惜自己的生命,而且也要注意自己以后给人留下什么样的印象。
1.According to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the whole text we can see that the first paragraph________.
A.puts forward the subject of the text
B.shows the author’s pity on the kid
C.acts as an introduction to the discussion
D.makes a clear statement of the author’s views
答案 C
解析 主题思想题。综合全文信息可知,本文主 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )要谈论了人生的价值。具体说明了人应该怎样活着才能死后让后人怀念。第一段主要通过Lucien给圣诞老人的信说明他对他爸爸的怀念,从而引出全文的主题。所以答案不是A,而是C。
2.In the secon ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d paragraph the author mainly wants to explain to us________.
A.how much he misses his parents now
B.why his parents often appear in his dream
C.when Lucien will get over all his sadness
D.how proud he was when he succeeded in life
答案 B
解析 归纳总结题。学生容易误选 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )A。综合全段可知作者说明他去世的父母仍常出现在其梦中并且对父母比活着时还思念,主要是为了说明为什么如此,文章最后一句“The values of my parents still live on.”体现了中心。
3.What feeling did the author’s mother express in her reply 【来源:21·世纪·教育·网】
A.Proud B.Happy C.Disappointed D.Worried
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。通过第二段的倒数第 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )三句“The reply was a long time in coming,but when it did,all Mother said was ‘I hope this means that now you will have more time for the children!’”可知他妈妈听到儿子的好消息时,不是proud和happy,而是对儿子提出了殷切的希望,希望儿子能花更多时间为孩子们做事情,也就是担心儿子以后能否做好工作。所以应选worried。
4.In the author’s opinion,the value of a person’s life is________.【来源:21cnj*y.co*m】
A.to leave behind a precious memory to the people related.【版权所有:21教育】
B.to have a high sense of duty to the whole society21教育名师原创作品
C.to care what others will remember and treasure
D.to share happiness and sadness with his family
答案 A
解析 从第三段的第一句“It ma ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )kes me pause to think about how I will live on in the hearts and minds of my children and of those for whom I care.” 可看出一个人生命的主要价值在于给人留下什么样的印象。
5.What does the write ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r mean by the sentence taken from an old poem in the last paragraph
A.Call on criminals and murderers to lay down their guns.21·世纪*教育网
B.Advise parents to stay with their children safely at home.
C.Spend every day meaningfully in memory of the death.
D.Try to keep violence and murder far away from society.
答案 D
解析 猜测语句题。从这一句本身的意 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )思和文章的最后一句If more parents knew this in their hearts to be true,there might be fewer knives on our streets today可以猜出应是“让暴力和凶杀远离我们的社会”之意。

Ⅴ.阅读理解
Managing others is alw ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ays a tough task,but in the past that stress was balanced by hopes for career mobility and financial rewards.Along with a sizable pay raise,people chosen as managers would begin a nearly automatic climb up the career ladder to lucrative executive private benefits:company cars,club memberships,plus the key to the executive washroom.
But in today’s global ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ),more competitive showground,a manager sits in an insecure chair.Restructuring has removed layer after layer of management as companies came to view their organizations as collections of talents rather than hierarchies(等级).There are far fewer steps for managers to climb.Also,managerial jobs demand more hours and headaches than ever before but offer slim,if any,financial paybacks and perks.
Now managers must mana ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ge many people who are spread over different locations,even over different continents.They must manage across functions with say,design,finance and marketing.
In an age of en ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )trepreneurship,when the most praised people in business are those launching something new,management seems like an invisible,thankless role.Employers are looking for people who can do things,not for people who make other people do things.
In addition,the Dilber ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t factor is at work.With Dilbert’s popular cartoon character as well as many television situation comedies routinely describing managers as fools or enemies,they just don’t get much respect any more.
Moreover,it m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ay not pay to be a manager at least not the way it once did.Ms. Chmielewski says,“The emotional rewards can be great,and there were times I enjoyed management.But a 10 to 11 hour day and one weekend day a month is the norm.”
With more peo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ple cautions of joining management,are corporations being hurt or worrying about developing future leaders?Not many are.While employers have dismissed a lot of managers,they believe many more candidates linger on at many companies.“Another reason companies aren’t short of managers”,argues Robert Kelly,a business professor,“is that so many workers today are self managed,either individually or via teams,they don’t need a manager.”
1.Compared with the past,the managing job today is more________.
A.demanding B.rewarding C.questionable D.acceptable
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。依据文章第二、三段 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )的描述,尤其是由其中的“more competitive showground”,“insecure chair”,“managerial jobs demand more hours and headaches than ever before”,“manage across functions with say,design,finance and marketing”这些部分可以得知,现在管理类工作的要求越来越苛刻,越来越高,故答案为A。
2.The author mention ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s what Ms. Chmielewski says to reflect that________.
A.the managers’ low working efficiency makes them less paid
B.the gain of being a manager is not as satisfactory as before
C.she enjoys great emotional rewards of being a manager
D.she misses the past enjoyment of being a manager
答案 B
解析 推理判断题。由倒数第二段第一 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )句的“...it may not pay to be a manager at least not the way it once did.”可知,现在做经理的回报没有以前高,而“But a 10 to 11 hour day and one weekend day a month is the norm.”只是其中一个具体的体现罢了。由此可知B项正确。21世纪教育网版权所有
3.What can we learn from the passage
A.Managers have more chances to be promoted now.
B.Managers were not satisfied with the way they were treated.2-1-c-n-j-y
C.It is unnecessa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ry for a qualified manager to manage a variety of fields.
D.The cartoon ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )character by Dilbert contributes to the bad image of managers.
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。由倒数第三段中 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )的“With Dilbert’s popular cartoon character as well as many television situation comedies routinely describing managers as fools or enemies,...”可知D项正确。
4.What can we infer from the last paragraph
A.More and more people are eager to become the managers.www.21-cn-jy.com
B.There will be more managers to be employed in the future.【版权所有:21教育】
C.Employers think it easy for them to find managers in the future.
D.Teamwork makes it possible for companies not to hire more managers.
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。由最后一段第三句“ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )While employers have dismissed a lot of managers,they believe many more candidates linger on at many companies.”可知C项正确。
